Do you support the continued operation of the Lethbridge Fish & Game Shooting Sports Facility in its current location in Pennaquim Park?

Yes, I support the location.

“The LFGA have done an amazing job in their location”.

Do you believe the City of Lethbridge has an obligation to residents by assisting the Lethbridge Fish and Game Association provide a safe, controlled environment to use firearms?

The city has an obligation to safety for the citizens of Lethbridge. This is done by working hand & hand with the LFGA.

Do you agree that the LFGA Shooting Sports Facility represents an important community sport and recreation resource?

I believe in supporting the various interests of the community which includes the LFGA Shooting Sports Facility. The LFGA Shooting Sports Facility deserves the same attention and respect as other significant sports and recreation facilities.

Do you believe that the LFGA Shooting Sports Facility should be treated differently than other sporting venues by the City of Lethbridge? If so, how?

It depends on what you mean by differently. Given the nature of the sport, there is a different level of safety that is required, however it is a sporting activity and should be treated as such.

 What is your position on ethical hunting and our need to support modern methods of wildlife management.

I believe that we need to assist in the management of wildlife. Ethical hunting plays a key role in achieving this.

How would you support the extensive conservation, environment protection and revitalization, and wildlife management programs we provide?

I would support the programs as I always have in the past. Listening to any issues that arise and working towards solutions.

Have you ever worked with the LFGA in the past and what was your experience?

Yes, I’ve had the privilege in working with membership in  advocating for the current location and giving the LFGA the support it needs to excel and succeed.
